I didn't read 90% of what came after this. I'm just replying to this one.

Yes, it is smoke, and inhaling smoke, under any circumstances, is not good for you. But, marijuana smoke, I garantee, doesn't contain NEARLY as many carcinogens and tobacco smoke does. Otherwise, if it did, I'm sure the government would've used that information for their cause. Also, I base it on personal experience. I know hippies, at least 45 years old, have been smoking weed, and only weed, for pretty much their whole life, and have suffered NO adverse effects, such as dramatically decreased lung capacity, smokers cough, etc. The only way I can see a person dieing from marijuana is literally a THC overdose, and it would take A LOT of smoking to pull some shit like that off...

and apparantly smoking a joint is worse than having a cig because it doesnt have a filter on it... that sounds right but im not entirely sure...

i know people who blaze a lot and they got a cough from smoking weed. the point is that anything that BURNS HOT when you inhale it damages your lungs, and gives you a bigger chance of getting a lung infection...

Weed causes a decrease in heart rate, and also it effects your blood sugar as stated earlier. These in turn can cause a heart attack, but its very unlikely. You'd need to smoke yourself past stupid to actually have a heart attack from smoking. But, you can also get scared real bad/over -exert yourself and so on that will make your heart have to work harder and that can lead to a heart attack. In other words, weed won't directly cause a heart attack unless you're a complete idiot asking for one. My family has a huge history of bad heart problems and both my parents and me smoke, and they've never had problems, nor have I. The only bad thing about weed is you tend to lose your ability to remember things as well from long-term use.

question: Does taking vitamin C pills help sober you up faster because of the vitamin C?....heard about this somewhere and would be interesting to see if its true...

It is generally considered to be impossible to achieve a lethal overdose by smoking cannabis. According to the Merck Index, 12th edition, the LD50, the lethal dose for 50% of rats tested by inhalation, is 42 mg/kg of body weight. That is equivalent of a 165 lb (75 kg) man ingesting all of the THC in 21 one-gram cigarettes of high-potency (15% THC) cannabis buds at once, assuming no THC was lost through burning or exhalation. For oral consumption, the LD50 for rats is 1270 mg/kg and 730 mg/kg for males and females, respectively, equivalent to the THC in about a pound of 15% THC cannabis. Only with intravenous administration — an unheard-of method of use — may such a level be even theoretically possible.[21]

There has only ever been one recorded verdict (although not ultimately upheld) of fatal overdose due to cannabis. In January 2004, Lee Maisey of Pembrokeshire, Wales was found dead. The coroner's report stated "Death due to probable cannabis toxicity". It had been reported that Maisey smoked about six joints a day. Mr. Maisey's blood contained 130 nanograms per milliliter (ng/ml) of the THC metabolite THC-COOH. However, the validity of the finding did not stand up well under review. As reported on 2004-01-28 in the Neue Züricher Zeitung, the Federal Health Ministry of Switzerland asked Dr. Rudolf Brenneisen, a professor at the department for clinical research at the University of Bern, to review the data of this case. Dr. Brenneisen said that the data of the toxicological analysis and collected by autopsy were "scanty and not conclusive" and that the conclusion "death by cannabis intoxication" was "not legitimate."[22] Additionally, Dr. Franjo Grotenhermen of the Nova-Institute in Cologne, Germany said: "A concentration of 130 ng/ml THC-COOH in blood is a moderate concentration, which may be observed some hours after the use of one or two joints. Heavy regular use of cannabis easily results in THC-COOH concentrations of above 500 ng/ml. Many people use much more cannabis than Mr. Maisey did, without any negative consequences."

yah it fucks with you short term but for me only when im high...when im not high my memory is fine...but i do forget a lot of shit because im high a lot. and when im blown time just flied and at the end of a smokin day...shit i didthat day becomes just one big blur, ll have no detailed memory.
